Comment
#3 of 4-coin seriesInteresting fact
The 1995 Canadian Gray Jays 50 cent coin is a unique piece of numismatic history. One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a rare error, known as a "double die" error. This occurs when the dies used to strike the coin are misaligned, resulting in a double impression of the design on the coin. This error can be seen on the reverse side of the coin, where the image of the Gray Jays appears twice, creating a mirror-like effect. This error adds a unique touch to an already rare and valuable coin, making it highly sought after by collectors.
